My dog has had a swollen paw with no visible signs of puncture or foreign body. After receiving anti-inflammatory and antibiotic treatments, the swelling has gone down, but the dog is still limping and has a yellow furry spot on the pad that he constantly licks and dislikes being touched. What should I do?

My puppy is feeling warm to hot, not moving around well, and might have eaten something. He's not eating or drinking, and was fine this morning before I went to work. What should I do?

Scamper, a 9-year-old spayed female small/medium mixed breed dog, has been vomiting since August and has recently been diagnosed with an infection, leading to dehydration and weight loss. She is currently on Clavaseptin 250 mg every 12 hours. What additional supplements, vitamins, or treatments can be given to help her, and how can her hydration and dry nose be managed effectively?

My lab mix keeps getting ringworm, especially on his belly. He's a house dog, clean, no fleas but does love the pool and his kiddy pool. We had it cleared up, but it's back, even though we dry him off after he swims. Now our son has a spot on his hip that could be ringworm. Will athlete's foot cream help, like I've heard?

Our dog got sand in his eyes. He keeps his eyes partially closed and is very subdued. He cries when we try to wash his eyes. What should we do, and is it safe to wait until morning to take him to the vet?

My 4-month-old Pomeranian has something wrong with one of his eyes. It looks like a torn lens or a circular soft contact lens on the surface of the eye. How can I determine if it's something less serious?
